Tiyana Mitchell included in The Top 5 Art Exhibitions to see in London in August

Taking her grandfather’s old black-and-white photographs of his travels, Tiyana Mitchell creates large and small-scale paintings based on this record of a life she never knew – her grandfather died when she was six. It’s a great way of connecting through time, and even the colour palette she has chosen has a sepia tone to it. I also enjoyed the artist’s fixation on shoes, as they feature prominently in her work. Until 29th August, free.
